Families considering assisted living in Mississippi will be greeted by warm temperatures and a landscape defined by the Mississippi and Yazoo rivers. Elevation is low throughout the state, with some small hills in the northeast section. In Mississippi’s western counties, river flooding throughout history deposited sediment into the fertile area now known as the Mississippi Alluvial Plain. The state’s climate becomes increasingly tropical as you travel south toward the beaches of Bay St. Louis along the Gulf Coast. Mississippi’s affordable living costs — the lowest of any U.S. state — along with its mild climate and proximity to popular destinations such as New Orleans and the Florida panhandle make the Magnolia State an ideal retirement destination.
Currently, A Place for Mom partners with more than 40 senior living communities in Mississippi that provide assisted living.
The median monthly cost of assisted living in Mississippi is about $3,200.

The staff was very friendly and helpful. I had no problem getting visitation time. And my loved one was allowed to have friends come visit her as well. A friend of mine also had a loved one here, and they didn't have any problems either . All was positive. They continued to offer activities, and it always looked like they kept the residents busy anytime I came by.
Read moreWe chose Brookdale Hattiesburg because the price was the cheapest that we were able to find. The room sizes here are very nice. They did have quite a few activities provided for the residents but my loved one did not participate. The covid virus was going on while she was here, so there was not a lot of freedom. Overall though, I think if they improved the food and the care it would be worth the money.
Read moreBy far the best of its kind that I'm aware of. The large rooms are great. The staff has been absolutely awesome. They are kind, accomodating, and very attentive to the need of the residents. My mother in law is so very happy living there. And lots of activities to keep her mind busy, which is a god-send. Can't say enough good things about it!
